บท 2: Robert's Rebellion.
In the lords chambers located within the walls of Sparta, the lord Agis lay next to a woman of otherworldly beauty. The woman has long, wavy, raven black hair sprawled across her naked back. Her cheeks are slightly flushed and covered with a sheen of sweat from her recent lovemaking with Agis. This is Ashara Dayne, his wife. Even though the two have grown older the passion they shared in their youth still burns brightly, they often struggle to keep their hands off each other having been caught recently making love in the lords office by their daughter Hera.
Agis leans over and gently kisses his wife, who lies on his chest with her eyes closed, seemingly sleeping.
"Mmmm..." Ashara moans with bliss.
"I'm going to miss this, Ashara." Agis says with a hint of melancholy in his tone.
His words make Ashara cuddle further into him. She wished with all her heart that her lord husband would not have to leave, but she knew that he could not and would not resist the call of war.
"As will I husband, I can only hope you send those squids back to their decrepit Island as fast as possible." Ashara says, her voice laced with hope.
"Do not worry, those squids are no match for our elite warriors. This rebellion will be quelled as quick as it started." Agis says with complete confidence in his voice.
"I will pray to Ares for your success, my love." Ashara promises.
"Thank you, my love." Agis smiles down lovingly at his beautiful wife.
While admiring his beautiful wife, he notices a frown spreading across her lips.
Oh no. Agis braces himself for what is about to come.
"My love, when will Leo return?" Ashara asks nervously. This subject had caused numerous fights amongst the husband and wife.
You see, Sparta had a tradition, one that all males of Sparta were forced to go through called the Agoge. At the age of five, they would be ripped away from their mothers and forced to the Spartan Fortress built on the shores of Cape Kraken. There they would be trained as warriors of Sparta till the age of 12, after which they would be sent to Essoss where they would serve in the Spartan Mercenary company for 3 years before they're allowed to return home where they would serve in the Spartan army until they die or they reach the age of 60. Of course, sons of the lords of Sparta were exempt from going to Essos and only needed to complete the first part of the Agoge.
However, being the high Lord of Sparta Agis's son was exempt from the Agoge all together but in a move that made Agis proud of his young son Leonidas, Leonidas volunteered for the Agoge.
Ashara and Hera of course did their best to talk him out of it but Leonidas was steadfast in his request to go and after much discussion Ashara finally relented but only allowed him to complete the first part of the Agoge before he was to return.
Agis hugs his adorable wife tight to his side. "He'll be back before his 12th nameday my love. Do not worry, Ashara, that boy is a true warrior. He is going to be okay." Agis reassures her while gently rubbing her shoulders.
Ashara sighs sullenly. She knows it was Leo's decision to go, but if Agis wanted to, he could've easily stopped him from going. Instead, Agis supported Leo betraying her in the process.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. However, there's no changing it now. Her darling son had already left.
"Hmph, I'm going to sleep." Ashara says and turns from her husband. Even though her baby boy was already gone, it doesn't mean she will let her husband off.
Agis gulps from desire as he sees Ashara's smooth naked back and her voluptuous bottom that's covered by a thin sheet of blanket that might as well not be there. Agis leans forward, grabbing his wife's shoulder, ready for another round.
"Go to sleep, Agis." Ashara says as she pulls her shoulder free from his grasp.
Agis smiles wryly at his wife's rejection, seeing that he won't be having any more sex Agis lays down but not before pulling his wife into his embrace, an action that she doesn't reject.
It doesn't take long for the two lovers to fall asleep with loving smiles adorning their faces.
The next day, Agis said his goodbyes to his daughter and wife with a smile on his face, excited by the prospect of fighting once again.
Little did Agis know that this would be the last time he'd see his family ever again.
1 year later.
In the lords chambers at the castle of Sparta, a woman and a young girl can be seen crying. The woman was holding the younger girl against her bosom as they both shed tears of grief.
The woman is Ashara of house Sparta, and the young girl is her daughter Hera.
They had just received devastating news. They were told that Lord Agis had died during the siege of Pyke. Apparently, he was killed by Victarion Greyjoy as they were siegeing Pyke.
Ashara and Hera were devastated after hearing the news.
However, Ashara would not be able to mourn for long.
*Knock!!! Knock!!! Knock!!!* "My lady, the council requested your presence." A guard says from behind the door.
Ashara quickly wipes the tears from her face. In Sparta, one could not afford to look weak, and crying was seen as a huge weakness.
Ashara knew why they summoned her. With her lord husbands death, she would now be the regent lord of Sparta until her son came of age. Now, normally, this would not be the case anywhere else within Westeros, but here in Sparta, women hold a high level of respect because they give birth to Sparta's warriors. Even the council, which was previously filled with old men, now includes old women as well.
"Alright, tell them I'll arrive shortly." Ashara answers doing her best to make her voice sound as normal as possible.
"Very well, my lady, I'll inform the council."
Ashara hears the footsteps of the retreating guard.
Ashara takes a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.
She looks down at her 9 year old daughter and gently caresses her hair. "Mother has to leave now Hera, why don't you write your brother a letter so we can inform him about your father and tell him how much we miss him." Ashara suggests in an attempt to keep her daughter distracted.
Through her tears, Hera answers. "Al...alright, mother." She promises before getting off of her mother.
"Good girl." Ashara smiles and gives Hera a gentle, loving kiss on her cheek.
Ashara quickly cleans her face and puts on a new dress with some light make-up before she leaves the room ready to deal with the council.
While all this was happening, an oblivious 6 year old was hard at work training with all his might, so that he might live up to the name he was given.
